Colin Kaepernick
At least he got rid of that horrible goatee (he now has a full beard). But man, it's hard for Seahawks fans to stomach 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick. Is it because it's actually really good, taking over midseason last year and leading the Niners to the Super Bowl? Is it because of his egotistical ''Kaepernicking'' touchdown move (pictured above), in which he mimes kissing his biceps? Is it because of his tactlessness (see: Miami Dolphins cap) or his (seemingly manufactured) street-tough image? Is it because he's a complete 180 from Seattle's own young signal-caller, Russell Wilson, when it comes to poise and respect? The answer is: yes.
